The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Selston Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Nottinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will handle the typical problems that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Nottinghamshire we have identified an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to people not being aware of the way to use it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?

Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And definitely do not crank the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you will likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Contact us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Selston Green

We not too long ago had a phone call from a businessman who had put the wrong fuel in his modified Daewoo Lanos in Selston Green. He had conked out on the street. "It was incredible how quick you guys were in getting a technician out to aid me when I filled my diesel car with petrol. Thank you ever so much". Naturally we arrived punctually and purged the engine after draining all of the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival the engineer said the motorist was scowling, but was satisfied afterwards.

This was exactly what we call an unsociable time to be up. It was roughly dawn and nobody was stirring. It was fairly uneventful thus far, and Ray and I were sitting around reading a couple of old articles. It was an uncommon calm hour in Nottinghamshire. It was indeed that peaceful that when the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist told me: "I've just completed my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in the diesel canary yellow Mazda B2600". We instructed him to tell us where he was and we left, arriving in Selston Green no more than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the engine and he thanked us for coming so quickly. As we were going back home we noticed two young ladies on the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we pulled over to change it, to their delight.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
